Adalasy: We call Zoonotic species. I agree. Many of these pests carry/can carry viruses dangerous to human |

healthserve: The word dangerous does not quite describe it. They can cause fatalities in humans and they often do. |

For the person who recommended drinking Kerosene please nobody should ever do that. However i would recommend turpentine in place of Kerosene but even Turpentine is not to be taken orally Pour turpentine alone over a snake bite to draw out the poison or you can mix turpentine with salt and tie the mixture over a snake bite to draw out the poison but this one has to be super quickly after the snake bite. After this, rub fat from fatty meat and turpentine all over, even under your arms and the bottom of your feet. Go to bed and cover up. You will wake up in the morning totally free from the effect of the venom of the snake bite. You can buy Turpentine from a good store and i advice everyone should have one in their homes for such a time as this

lovchalice: Never ask anyone to drink kerosene when they are obviously panicky. The thought of being bitten by a snake sets off a panic alarm in our system. Anything taken orally can be taken excessively because they think the more they take the quicker it would work or the more effective so overdose is very likely and further complications from what you thought would help might occur. Besides well known herbs which i have listed a few i do not give anything oral for snake bites. Anything else is topical and it works almost as good if not better too. It depends on what is quickly at hand though. Just be careful is all i am saying |

TheArchangel:A wet bite from a puff adder is a death sentence in Nigeria,anti venom or not,these pit vipers are bioengineered by nature not to bite anyhow but to conserve venom for prey not humans,not to run away or attack when threatened,they tend to depend on their camouflage to hide,even if you step on it they may not even bite or in most cases if they do it will be a dry bite or less venom bit from an adult viper,but if you have the bad luck to step on a young viper that is learning how to conserve venom and receive a full wet bite,you will be dead in minutes !!! 2 Likes |

dawnomike:This is the worst advice given with so much confidence. If u tie a bite site u are only making it worse as there would be high tissue concentration of venom around bite site and subsequently irreversible tissue damage. And the onions is it to garnish the venom? And cutting open bite site with knife will will further worsen it cos no way u are going to remove venom in circulation by bleeding. The venom travels fast following a bite in seconds, so cutting open will not change anything. Steps to take is to Re-assure the victim not to panic, as anxiety increases heart rate and venom circulation. If possible immobilize the affected part to slow down blood flow. Rush as fast as possible to the nearest facility with antivenom. |

Kalixx: Wrong. The Black mamba venom can kill you within 20 to 30mins while the Inland taipans venom kills in less than an hour |
Re: What To Do When Snake Bites You And There Is No Hospital Nearby? by Adalasy: 12:30am On Dec 18, 2019 |
livebyday: No snake venom can kill you in 4 minutes. The average is between 20 mins to a few hours depending on the volume of venom injected into the person |

biggy26: Snake cannot go to a place where there is bitter kola... If you are in the bush with bitter kola snakes will stay far away from you.....not to talk of biting you Snakes also hate SALT. Bitter kola can also reduce the effect of food/drink poisoning if you properly chew and swallow it. If you are drinking bear chew and leave small bitter kola in your mouth while drinking......you will not be drunk. Guy bitter kola does a lot of things. 1 Like |

Tightly tie the upper region and lower region of the bite wit a rope to reduce the venom flow into the blood stream, Cut open the bite with a knife or blade and try to such out the venom, place a cut of onions on the region and eat uncooked walnut. with all that, you are completely safe. |

livebyday: Eating charcoal or something they call black stone will kill the poison. Never surrender to defeat. Place charcoal on the bite spot and rub it hard. It sucks the poison. Alternatively, drink Kerosene and rush to hospital. Lime, Garlic, Ginger, Bitter Kola, palm oil, Onions are all natural Anti poisons people have at home yet they don't know. Eat good quantities of these things then.... Then rush the person to hospital. 1 Like |

healthserve: You are very funny. How can somebody drink 4 litres of palm oil ? Big EVA water is 1.5 litres. It will take a normal person 2 days to drink 4 litres of WATER. Say less Palm oil. Where will you get 50 coconuts to generate 4 litres of its water ? Let's apply sense to our comments. 1 Like |
